Marc Haine asks leaders what one action bridges generational divides. The answer: start curious conversations this week. Ask team members from different generations open questions like "How do you see this?" about current work to surface what each generation thinks.
For the leaders who are tuning in right now, what's one action that they can take this week to start bridging the generational divide in their teams?
I would say you want to start by having a conversation, an intentional conversation with somebody in a different generation, like maybe a younger generation, and ask them a question as simple as, And how do you see this? Like, be curious. I want to know what your perspective is on our latest initiative. And again, different companies are going to have different things.
